I stayed in Mexico, Thailand and South Korea from September 2006 to March 2007 in order to conduct research on financial restructuring. Though it was a tight schedule, taking me to three countries in a period of six months, it provided me, as a researcher of comparative political economics, with the valuable experience of observing differences and similarities among the three countries in a concentrated manner. Based on this experience, I would like to discuss comparative studies, while touching upon Mexico, a “foreign country” from the viewpoint of Asian studies.
